AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

This integration enables cost-effective and efficient control of external systems, enhancing the flexibility and functionality of VoIP systems, allowing them to manage and interact with various devices, such as door locks and alarms, thereby reducing the need for separate infrastructure and improving organizational efficiency.

Problems solved by technology

This was needed but also costly to install, maintain and upgrade these systems for any organization.
The integration capability of the Integrated Telecommunications / Networked VoIP systems are not fully utilized.
None integrates into the database subsystems to allow a Call Center Application from the telecommunications provider connected into this Ethernet system to directly control these Input / Output Devices.

Embodiment Construction

[0031]The various embodiments described herein are not intended to limit the claimed invention to those embodiments described. On the contrary, the intent is to cover all alternatives, modifications, and equivalents as may be included within the spirit and scope of the appended claims.

[0032]The iCall system and method, as summarized above, can be used to control or to enable commercially available end effectors or input and output devices with a conventional telecommunications system. The devices that may be monitored or controlled include, but are not limited to, Door locks, Solenoids, Electro magnets, Lights (Low or High Voltage), other Visual indicators, Audible Indicators including Bells, Buzzers, etc., and Motors. This basic functioning will also work to open a door (Security Access etc), and / or turn on and off a light, buzzer, bell etc.

[0033]In one exemplary embodiment in a patient care facility (e.g., hospital, nursing home), the patient pulls the cord, hits the call button o...

Abstract

Disclosed are systems and methods that enable expanded functionality for call control monitoring and control of external electrical / electromechanical devices using a telecommunication system.

Description

[0001]The instant application claims priority from U.S. Provisional Patent Application 60 / 822,292 for an “INPUT / OUTPUT END POINT CONTROL FOR INTEGRATED TELECOMMUNICATIONS—NETWORK SYSTEMS (VOIP),” by C. Fitzsimmons, filed Aug. 14, 2006, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.BACKGROUND AND SUMMARY[0002]Network, control and telecommunications systems at one time used separate infrastructures to perform the work they were designed for. This was needed but also costly to install, maintain and upgrade these systems for any organization.[0003]Today however what once were desperate systems requiring separate infrastructures are now systems that use the same network communications infrastructure to connect to their respective devices. At the same time voice-over-internet-protocol (VoIP) telecommunications systems have presented to organizations that implement such systems with the potential for increased efficiency due to the simplification and integration capabilities of...
